The current virPCIDeviceNew() signature, receiving 4 uints in sequence
(domain, bus, slot, function), is not neat.
We already have a way to represent a PCI address in virPCIDeviceAddress
that is used in the code. Aside from the test files, most of
virPCIDeviceNew() callers have access to a virPCIDeviceAddress reference,
but then we need to retrieve the 4 required uints (addr.domain, addr.bus,
addr.slot, addr.function) to satisfy virPCIDeviceNew(). The result is
that we have extra verbosity/boilerplate to retrieve an information that
is already available in virPCIDeviceAddress.
A better way is presented by virNVMEDeviceNew(), where the caller just
supplies a virPCIDeviceAddress pointer and the function handles the
details internally.
This patch changes virPCIDeviceNew() to receive a virPCIDeviceAddress
pointer instead of 4 uints.

This module will be used by virHostdevManager and it's inspired
by virPCIDevice module. They are very similar except instead of
what makes a NVMe device: PCI address AND namespace ID. This
means that a NVMe device can appear in a domain multiple times,
each time with a different namespace.
